THIS GAME WILL DETERMINE ...

How both teams are viewed, at least to some degree. A win by South Alabama would be a huge boost for the team, but just as importantly for the program. If the Jags can come away with a victory it could prove to be a springboard for the remainder of the season. A loss won't be crushing, even if it's by a large margin. A Tennessee loss would be difficult for Vols' fans to accept, but it would also put the season on troubled footing as it would be a third straight loss with Georgia and South Carolina up next. All the pressure is on Tennessee. The Vols are a 19-point favorite and will be expected to win by that margin if not more. Tennessee needs this win; South Alabama wants this win.

THREE THINGS TO LOOK FOR

1. Tennessee will try to take advantage of its size advantage up front and its one-two punch of Rajion Neal and Marlin Lane at running back to pound the South Alabama defense and control the ball and game's tempo. If successful, it could be a long day for the Jags.

2. South Alabama's offense, because the Vols are also big up front on the defensive line, will likely try to use short, quick passes and intermediate throws to move the chains and get playmakers the ball in space. At times, look for the Jags to throw downfield deep to keep the Vols' secondary honest, but remember that Tennessee has eight interceptions already this season and has returned three of those picks for touchdowns.

3. Quarterback play. How (and when) South Alabama balances its two quarterbacks Ross Metheny and Brandon Bridge will be interesting. Both will play and both have packages designed to take advantage of their strengths. For Tennessee, Justin Worley is expected to return as the starter after redshirt freshman Daniel Peterman struggled last week at Florida (and suffered an injury that will sideline him for at least four weeks). Will head coach Butch Jones use this game to give one of (or both) the true freshmen -- Joshua Dobbs, Riley Ferguson -- a shot?

KEY MATCHUP

The line play is always important, regardless which side of the ball is being discussed, but it's truly important for South Alabama's success on Saturday. Of the two, how the Jags; offensive line holds up against the Vols' defensive front is probably the bigger factor. The quarterbacks must have time to operate and the O-line will be responsible for providing that time.

BY THE NUMBERS

63.5: That's the difference, in South Alabama's favor, between the number of total yards the Jaguars average per game (404.7) compared to Tennessee's average (341.2),

SIGNIFICANT INJURIES

South Alabama enters the game healthy again. Aside from the three players who are out for the season -- OL Melvin Meggs (ACL, knee), DE Will Thompson (ankle surgery) and Randon Carnathan (Achilles' heel) -- the Jags will have everyone available.
